Actually, bind_id is only to help find your DN - when you are specifying an attribute based login. (Since LDAP servers only allow authentication via a DN, we need a way to find your DN (which is friendlier) - especially if your LDAP server doesnt allow anonymous queries (or the attribute you are logging in with isnt available via an anonymous query)).
I think it should be nice to not show base entries, if they appear to not exist to a user who is logged in - however, its a trade off over using PLA to create base entries, for a new setup. (Since those bases dont exist, and you may want to use PLA to create them - PLA has no idea that you are a privileged LDAP user who would want to create them.) Anyway, in writing this email, I implemented a server configuration server,hide_noaccess_base, which if set to true (the default is false), will hide base DNs that are not accessible, instead of showing the create dialogue.
